At the age of 12, believing he has killed a friend, Sidney Henderson vows to God never to harm another human being. In the years that follow, the brilliant, self-educated, almost pathologically gentle Sidney keeps his promise, even in the face of hatred and persecution in his insular, rural community. So when a small boy dies in a botched act of sabotage and revenge and Sidney is blamed, his son Lyle takes matters into his own violent hands to defend the family.
